p) 

Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your 

side. 

Accidental contact with the spinning accessory 

could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your 

body.

q) 

Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. 

The 

motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and 

excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause 

electrical hazards.

r) 

Do not operate the power tool near flammable 

materials. 

Sparks could ignite these materials.

s) 

Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. 

Using water or other liquid coolants may result in 

electrocution or shock.

2) KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS

•  Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged 

rotating wheel, sanding band, brush or any other 

accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of 

the rotating accessory which in turn causes the 

uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction 

opposite of the accessory’s rotation at the point of the 

binding.

•  For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched 

by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering 

into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the 

material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The 

wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, 

depending on the direction of the wheel’s movement at 

the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break 

under these conditions.

•  Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or 

incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be 

avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

a) 

Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position 

your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback 

forces.

The operator can control kickback forces, if 

proper precautions are taken.

b) 

Use special care when working corners, sharp 

edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the 

accessory. 

Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a 

tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss 

of control or kickback.

c) 

Do not attach a thin toothed saw blade

. Such blades 

create frequent kickback and loss of control.

d) 

Always feed the bit into the material in the same 

direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the 

material (which is the same direction as the chips 

are thrown).

 Feeding the tool in the wrong direction 

causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the work 

and pull the tool in the direction of this feed.

e) 

When using steel saws, cut-off wheels, high-speed 

cutters or tungsten carbide cutters, always have the 

work securely clamped.

 These wheels will grab if they 

become slightly canted in the groove, and can kickback. 

When a cut-off wheel grabs, the wheel itself usually 

breaks. When the steel saw, high-speed cutters or 

tungsten carbide cutter grab, it may jump from the groove 

and you could lose control of the tool.

3) SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR GRINDING AND 

ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS

a) 

Use only wheel types that are recommended for 

your power tool and only for recommended 

applications.

 For example: Do not grind with the side of 

a cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for 

peripheral grinding; side forces applied to these wheels 

may cause them to shatter.

b) 

For threaded abrasive cones and plugs use only 

undamaged wheel mandrels with an unrelieved 

shoulder flange that are of correct size and length.

Proper mandrels will reduce the possibility of breakage.

c) 

Do not “jam” the cut-off wheel or apply excessive 

pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive 

depth of cut. 

Overstressing the wheel increases the 

loading and susceptibility to twisting or binding of the 

wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel 

breakage.

d) 

Do not position your hand in line with and behind 

the rotating wheel. 

When the wheel, at the point of 

operation, is moving away from your hand, the possible 

kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power 

tool directly at you.

e) 

When the wheel is binding or when interrupting a 

cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and 

hold the power tool motionless until the wheel 

comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove 

the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in 

motion, otherwise kickback may occur. 

Investigate 

and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel 

binding.

f) 

Do not restart the cutting operation in the 

workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and 

carefully re-enter the cut. 

The wheel may bind, walk up 

or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.

g) 

Support panels or any oversized workpiece to 

minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. 

Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. 

Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the 

line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both 

sides of the wheel.

h) 

Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into 

existing walls or other blind areas. 

The protruding 

wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or 

objects that can cause kickback.

4) SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR WIRE 

BRUSHING OPERATIONS

a) 

Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush 

even during ordinary operation. Do not overstress 

the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. 

The wire bristles can easily penetrate light clothing and/ 

or skin.

b) 

Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least 

one minute before using them. During this time no 

one is to stand in front or in line with the brush.

Loose bristles or wires will be discharged during the 

run-in time.

c) 

Direct the discharge of the spinning wire brush 

away from you.

 Small particles and tiny wire fragments 

may be discharged at high velocity during the use of 

these brushes and may become imbedded in your skin.
